Boatlift
Boatlift
From the midst of 9/11, one of the darkest moments in American history, comes this inspiring and relatively unknown story. When the twin towers fell, hundreds of thousands of people ran to the water's edge. They soon realized that Manhattan is, indeed, an island. And that they were trapped. Within moments, an armada of every vessel that could get to the city's seawall spontaneously organized. Dashing into the teeth of danger, hundreds of boats pulled together and, without any formal planning, military or otherwise, they pulled off an ad-hoc sea evacuation that became the largest in history. Their story of courage and resolve reminds us of the powerful spirit that rose among us, on that fateful day. Narrated by Tom Hanks. Directed by Eddie Rosenstein.

A fictional investigative documentary looks back on the "assassination" of George W. Bush and attempts to answer the question of who committed the murder. Perhaps less morbid and disturbing to watch now than during Bush's presidency, the film doesn't address Bush's policies at all, instead focusing on the way a nation assigns blame in a time of crisis.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

I'm surprised it received so many bad reviews. I think it is a great movie, very well acted, strong and realistic, no sugar coating here. Tension builds up so well and the ending is very powerful. It's not an action movie ,is more a drama , dark thriller, I don't now how to describe it . Very New York The plot is original. I really liked it

...oh, and it's boring as all hell, morbidly depressing and utterly pointless in the end.The characters are all brain dead; the storyline is horribly stilted and completely under-developed and get's lost up its own ass several times over. The line delivery/audio is borderline inaudible in several scenes (mercifully but irritatingly). The storyline pleads for sympathy votes from every tragic theme and catastrophe it can find, becoming its own catastrophe along the way. There is not a single redeeming feature to this movie.The primo actors in this film were surely paid enough to be able to afford a refund of my hire fee for this (by association) falsely represented piece of crap! Where do I write to them to get my money back?!

I love cop thrillers but this was pretty awful. Channing Tatum gives a lousy performance as usual in what already is a boring and dull film and even the supporting cast who do a decent job can't save this movie. The film cuts between flashbacks way too many times and doesn't allow us to get to know the main character at all which just made this incredibly frustrating to watch. There was also some pretty bad editing here which at times was so bad I couldn't even tell what was going on on screen. I figured by the end of the film there might be some payoff in the climax, but instead there's a twist that makes no sense and all I could think was that the writers wrote it as the scene was being filmed because it makes no sense what so ever. I really wish I would've listened to the reviews and stayed away from this one. Even if you're a huge fan of Cop Crime-Drama's there's little enjoyment you'll find here.

I don't normally write reviews but I felt compelled to write this one because of all the criticism this movie has received. Believe none of it. The Son of No One is an intriguing, superbly acted, crime/drama/thriller/mystery. It is rather slow paced, and there aren't a lot of shootouts etc but that doesn't make it any the less compelling. I was hooked from start to finish. The movie is told both from a current perspective and from a series of flashbacks. Two murders that occur in the flashbacks remain unsolved and that has repercussions for the present part of the movie. Someone is talking and someone wants the talk to stop. Channing Tatum's character is a cop caught in the middle of all this. Gradually the story unfolds and the tension rises. Channing Tatum is especially good in his role, but Katie Holmes also shows some acting chops.
